Railway Workshops Improvements

Railway Workshops Improvements.

A contract has recently been placed with Messrs. A. and T. Burt, Ltd., for the complete installation of Plenum heating and ventilating plants in the Railway Workshops at Hutt Valley, Otahuhu, Hillside, and Addington.

The contractors will be responsible for the design and complete installation of this work. We understand this is the largest contract ever placed in New Zealand for ventilating plant, and its construction will cover a modern system of heating and ventilating almost new to this country.

It is now a recognised fact that an efficient heating and ventilating plant is a necessary adjunct to the complete equipment of a modern workshop. In practice, such plants become a valuable asset, as the output of the factory is considerably increased when proper working conditions are maintained.
